<pre class="docs-method-signature"><code>util.shapePerimeterConnectionPoint(linkView, view, magnet, ref)</code></pre>

<p>(<i>Deprecated</i>) This function can be directly used in the <a href="#dia.Paper.prototype.options">dia.Paper</a> <code>linkConnectionPoint</code> parameter. When used, links will try to find the best connection point right on the perimeter of the connected shape rather than only on the bounding box. See the image below.</p>

   // ...
   linkConnectionPoint: joint.util.shapePerimeterConnectionPoint
   // ...
})</code></pre>
